NEW ORLEANS — The U.S. Catholic bishops June 11 unanimously approved by voice vote a three-year extension of the Ad Hoc Committee on Religious Liberty. The vote came on the first day of the bishops' June 11-13 annual spring assembly in New Orleans.
Prior to the vote about extending the Ad Hoc Committee on Religious Freedom for three years, Baltimore Archbishop William E. Lori, the committee chair, compared the body's work to the “humble beginnings of the pro-life movement.”
